@Snowfire, I would greatly appreciate if you remove all sorts of tells that may or may not reveal who we are.
This is very pointedly a stealth mission.

What if Varys has name Corlyn Waters on divination-table and the moment Myrcella says it to someone he'll go to overdrive?
What if our trolling drops everyone into overdrive in mere minutes, because DP will do a roll and we'd get unlucky?
etc, etc.
We're better off just continuing on with this as we intended originally - looting the place of all we want, and leaving no traces, so that we could drop off our own spy agency here.

Please don't risk the whole thing.
We'll have it hard enough getting Varys already.
 
I would suggest that once we leave we could frame Varys and cause more chaos.
That hinges on the assumption we get him at all.
Which is very unlikely if we allow anyone to get as much as a sniff of VIserys-related information.
He's in service of Mammon and Tiamat.

He's likely under so many divination layers it would immediately catch someone in the castle saying our alter-ego's name.

Security will ramp up anyway when Varys dissapears, so there's no harm done in driving Cersei a little crazier.
The problem is leaving it up to chance while we have other tasks here.

Let's fffffucking not, mmkay?
 
Not viserys, someone with mindblank.

Bug difference.

Problem is the correlation between someone with Valryian features and Mindblank. They are not common enough that any random person can get them, and I believe it's been the Lannisters and Baratheons go to method of figuring out if Viserys did something, by the fact that they get nothing when divining the information.

*reads first posts after it*

Oh, dear fucking hell...

[READING INTENSIFIES]
You have all my sympathy, man.

I myself feel flabbergasted, being late for mere half an hour, and seeing a repeat of Lys-tree situation, only now with everyone going "troll" and "caw!" and fucking up operational security.
:/

Are we in the armory at the moment? The Update mentioned there being old suits of what I think are Targaryen armor that were banished to some forgotten corner of the Keep when Robert came into power. I'm pretty sure we came in through the kitchens with Dany remarking on the boxes of Beets but I'm unsure if we stayed in the kitchen or went further into the keep.
 
I'm pretty sure we have no intention of coming back after today.

Updated plan:

If possible, thrown in a greater arcane vision? I wanna check if she's warded, that's basic magic-world paranting stuff, and I'm frankly concerned she might not be.

Regarding your whole plan:
Unsure of validity of concern outlined below, but though I should bring to attention incase it seems like a plausible chain of events following the girl talking about the nice man who took a cat for its owner.

Mage asks for cat from princess, everyone freaks out. Divination spells are cast regarding cat. Points to sunspear. Mages, aware of ressurection magic realise possibility of de-deaded Martel's. Investigation continues. Ceresi finds out, sends assassins/makes problems. We squish problems, and probably ceresi, westerosi explodes at us, much sadness in thread ensues.

No you are in a random storage room filled with clutter including armors Robert does not went to see.
 
Alright, I'm reverting to old plan where we throw a bit of shade, but nothing major, and get a few hairs from the Princess for...reasons.

Please stand by.
 
Thanks for the confirmation. Also I'm not sure if you saw my earlier question but are we able to see any magic items/spells on Myrcella, or would the casting of Greater Arcane Sight be too conspicuous to hide from Myrcella?

You are currently invisible so nothing you do is conspicuous. You would have to vote to use the spell though since it uses a rather high level spell-slot.
 
Ok so we could potentially enchant her to just leave if we see that there's no magic items or spells protecting her. Good to know.
 
Updated plan, going back to something less insane.

[X] Plan Just A Humble Servant
-[X] After ensuring that your sudden appearance will not appear to be a result of magic, and checking for any hidden guards or other guardian entities with the help of Varys and Greater Arcane Sight, greet the Princess under the veil of a courtier come to collect a long-lost pet.
--[X] Tell her that the cat's name is Balerion, and that you've come to take him back to his owner.
---[X] Make a joke about how cats often are less owned and more owners themselves.
-[X] If it appears reasonable, there is no one else watching, and you are certain that no alarm spells will be triggered by it, remove the dust and spiderwebs from her clothing with a small working, seemingly bound to one of your rings.
--[X] 'Accidentally' acquire a few hairs in the process - people don't notice a few strands breaking as long as you don't pull them.

Hmm I just realized... Do we know any of the court mages? Like their names and faces? It would be so much easier to work magic if we were in the image of a court mage.

I imagine they're all Lannisters, but some confirmation would be neat.
